Online gin retailer launches

An Australian bottle shop has launched what it claims is the world’s first online specialist gin retail website for Australian gin enthusiasts called Gin Heaven.

Founder Dan Farrenc said: “We’ve been ‘gin nuts’ for years and we really wanted to sell something we are actually passionate about, rather than the same boring products.

“Our eventual goal is to list the most gins of anywhere in Australia, something we are very close to achieving already.”

The Sydney-based retailer lists everything gin-related from vermouths, mixers and bitters to around 100 New Western, London Dry, Sloe and Jenever gins.

It says at the moment, you have to call to order from the online store. However, the company aims to have a shopping cart launched within the next month.
